Wow. Sorry about the back. BE VERY CAREFUL. Backs are nothing to mess around with. The treadmill can be very effective exercise, so don't discount it too much. An hour on a treadmill with varying intensities may be just what the doctor ordered.

I know how much grief back issues can cause. This morning was another day when I thought I might need a crane to get out of my bunk. Ever since the first time I threw my back out, I have noticed that it becomes easier to do each time since. There are times I wish I had someone else's broken leg and they had my back problems because I figure I can get over a broken leg!

I know the treadmill can be good and effective exercise. When I am home, my primary source of exercise is walking, it can be cardio and it is definitely low impact.
